BLAEN :: Carmarthen Dioxide EP (Welsh Modular Alliance)
More analog and synth-blasted madness from the ever-talented South West Wales, UK-based artist BLAEN (aka John Healy of Somatic Responses).
Simona Zamboli :: Loisirs (Detroit Underground)
Simona Zamboli joins another one of electronic music’s mainstay labels Detroit Underground for their latest exploration into sound design with Loisirs.
Bogdan Raczynski :: ADDLE (Planet Mu)
A departure it may be, but we don’t lose anything that we love; rather gain some new tricks that we can enjoy just as much. […]
Distant Fires Burning :: Inperspectycon Vol.2 (Audiobulb)
The album is at its best when you hear the signature Audiobulb sound of minimalist, at times almost microscopic, glitchy ambient IDM, but there’s also some reverb drenched ambient drone.
V/A :: Túngata (Móatún 7)
The album itself, which features a host of label regulars such as ReKaB, Chevron and Drøn to name a few, is in the most part ambient IDM with some delightful splashes of ambient techno that’s been superbly produced, and I can’t stress this enough. It sounds truly lush.
Alako :: Arch EP (Notte Tempo)
As much as an inheritor of braindance, Alako is an interpreter of the style. Nothing is overdone on this debut, instead, an equilibrium is found between frenetic noodling and subtle shifts.
Chairweiner :: P1LL5 EP (EC Underground / Dead Money) — Vinyl giveaway US residents!
P1LL5 is an extended player we’re very excited about, its musical flashbacks, and forward-thinking soundscaped orchestration is on par with the likes of Plaid, Boards of Canada, Amon Tobin, Clark, and Meat Beat Manifesto—a press-release comparison we’re in total agreement with.
Özcan Saraç :: Copnvvvs (Kaer’Uiks)
Özcan Saraç creates fields of research using information processing and structures, with the purpose of questioning the human being’s relation to the universal system, logic and political mechanisms.
Neuro… No Neuro :: Faces & Fragments (Audiobulb)
Neuro… No Neuro’s ruminative plateaus featured on Faces & Fragments understand the omniscience as the artistry within each track shares its lush fragmented elements absorbed in such preciously decayed increments.
Tineidae :: Mothership (Cryo Chamber)
The spaced-out crystalline sequences, aerial swirling sounds and imaginative body of lysergic effects guarantee an immersive but also a continuously accessible and enjoyable experience.
